Ghana: Anti-government protest planned at the Law Court Complex in Accra from 08:30 Dec. 19

Informational

The anti-government #FixTheCountry movement has called for a protest at the Law Court Complex in Accra from 08:30 Dec. 19. The purpose of the action is to denounce a recent court decision preventing protests initially planned throughout December and early January 2024. It is unclear whether authorities have sanctioned the gathering, which may draw hundreds of participants.

Heightened security and localized traffic disruptions are likely near the Law Court Complex until the action concludes. Clashes between security forces and protesters cannot be ruled out given the anti-government nature of the demonstration.

Avoid all protests. Consider taking alternative routes to circumvent the Law Courts Complex. Heed the advice of security personnel and leave the area immediately at the first sign of any confrontation.
